Hello,
I'm trying to use Cinema Experience add-on and I would like to know if it works when we use an external player to play all movies (mpc-hc for me).
In fact, with cinema experience, trailers and/or intro clips are played by DVDplayer no?
Because for the moment It doesn't work : Cinema experience runs intro trailers (with dvdplayer I think) and in the same time the externalplayer runs the movie. XBMC send me a message : "An external player is used"
Can I configure Cinema experience for playing intro trailers and clips with DVDplayer and after runing my movie with my external player?
Or does cinema experience work only when the movie are read with DVDplayer and in this way XBMC plays intro trailers and clips and then the movie?
Thanks
LAreinette

Hello,
been playing around with this addon for some days now and it seems to be pretty cool. But I'm having some difficulties, don't know if I'm just not setting it up in the correct way or if this are some bugs.
- DTS-HD High Resolution Audio doesn't seem to get recognized, I copied the trailers from DTSHD-MA to a new folder DTSHD-HRA, but no trailer gets played
- almost all of my movies have 2 audio streams (english and german), on some of those files those 2 streams have different audio codecs, e.g. english is in DTS-HD Master Audio and german only in DTS. If I change the selected language for that movie, the audio trailer does not change, so for that movie there's always either the DTS or the DTS-HD Master Audio played, no matter which audio stream is chosen for that movie. (I'm still searching for a possibility to choose the audio and subtitle stream before playback of the movie starts, this would really boost the cinema-like experience of XBMC for me)
- when selecting a movie to be played in cinema mode, the view always changes to the next movie. I'm using the newest Aeon Nox skin with the big fan view.
I'm also looking for the correct way to organize my local movie trailers. Currently I'm just having trailers accompanying my movies in the same directory with the postfix -trailer in the filename, so the local movie trailer gets played when I choose to watch the trailer for a movie. But for Cinema Experience I would like to also have trailers for movies I do not have in my library yet. How do I set that up correctly, so that trailers get played in Cinema Experience according to the genre of the movie I select?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
